Sleeping on the back rather than the stomach greatly increases the risk of SIDS among healthy full-term infants. True False

False

Explanation:

SIDS refers to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. This is an unexplained death that happens to infants while sleeping.

Research suggest it may be due the infant having difficulties in breathing and regulating cardiovascular functions.

Therefore, one of the preventive measures includes always putting the baby to sleep on there backs and never on their stomach to allow easy breathing.

This makes the statement in the question false because sleeping in the back will not increase risk of SIDS.
